3uno5, I want to know more about your mono wiper. How was it done, how well does it sweep off water, ect.
And CSPracer what colour is that then? It look like a beige kinda colour which looks rad with the tan top by the way.

robsgotit · 12-08-2007, 03:06 PM

if you dont have nything nice to say dont say anything at all,

ugh, lose the wheels bodykit hood and battle wing, please.

Chaste White under Blinding Snow Pearl (Anyone ever see the Pearl White FD RX-7 Type RZ from Japan? Same color

)

You can really see th epearl on the font here...

Full color respray to Spicy Orange Mica from the Mazdaspeed Protege.

I'm hoping to have the SR20 and trans sitting in it before New Year's; as long as those darn kids keep soaking up my time!

Need to find Adam's car from MATG...the one with the Runabout fender mirrors. One of the best paintjobs I've seen.

Was it professionally done? Came out pretty good (at least from this distance)!

I agree, pictures dont do it justice, you have to see it in person to get the full effect.
Its an amazing paintjob

Rogue · 12-23-2007, 04:21 PM

Here's a silver 99 I painted Titanium.

I added the LE interior and BBS's to see how this would look on a M1.

CJ's MX-5 · 12-26-2007, 07:06 PM

update on mine! And a new camera to capture it. (Samsung NV15)

...wtf

PcolasNA · 01-01-2008, 02:01 PM

i checked your garage to see how you did your lights CJ, but didnt see anything. any info on what they are?

tyson 87 · 01-01-2008, 02:07 PM

ooooo

CJ's MX-5 · 01-01-2008, 05:37 PM

Until it finally starts to warm back up so that I can work on them, the bulbs are just zip-tied to the headlight doors, and the motors cranked up by hand....

Paint looks cool CJ, thinking of doing anything else to it (hint hint)?

PcolasNA · 01-01-2008, 09:26 PM

I meant what did you use for the lights?

I'm gonna say your hinting towards wheels? That is what everyone I've shown off to says. And makes the transition that quickly. From that looks awesome, to damn you need some wheels!

Actually due to the paint, I'm a little (ok a LOT) short on cash. But to spruce up the outside some more, I have started to polish the wheels. And not paint and polish the lip, but polish the whole wheel. I have (since the pic was taken) finished the RF wheels spokes. I just gotta do the lip, and center section. Will be ditching the centercaps. May take some pics today... if I can dig the car outta the snow again.

The bulbs are from a Cadillac XLR, complete with the Xenon start bulbs, and Phillips ballasts. Sorta a long story, but the short version is, used to work at a Cadillac dealer, the headlamp housings broke. We ordered new ones, and GM didn't call for the old ones back so they ended up on my car.

kabel · 01-02-2008, 12:43 PM

cj, I understand the lack of a budget for the car. I was not hinting at the wheels themselves so much, I don't mind the daisies. I would love to see your ride height lowered and replace the tail lamp assemblies

+1 its such a dark color it always looked black to me when I saw pics online.

tyson, moar pics plz. I remember you were about to sell that front spoiler but it looks like its not going anywhere soon.

CJ's MX-5 · 01-02-2008, 01:27 PM

Kabel, I totally agree on the ride height, and was considering suspension next. There are even a few threads on m.net about good ebay setups.

But the taillamp assy were just put on! They look much better than they did before paint. The dark color makes them "pop." And more people notice/ comment on them now.

Thanks for the feedback!!
CJ
